http://www.networkrail.co.uk/browse%20do...%20rus.pdf
The Victoria service from Forest Hill is detailed on page 77
Scrapping the South London Line is addressed on page 6 and 97

The Bellingham to Victoria service was included in the RUS (see page 6) but would not start until 2012 when the SLL would cease to run. Provision has been made in the timetable for both the Bellingham and the Crystal Palace loop to run into Victoria. I do not see that there is any conflict between Forest Hill to Victoria services and Bellingham to Victoria services.

Nasaroc is correct that there probably is a conflict between SLL and FH services at London Bridge after 2012, when capacity is reduced at London Bridge and we can expect to lose some of our peak morning services into London Bridge regardless. However, before they cut our services further they intend to extend all the platforms on our line to cope with 10 carriage trains, and for the SLL they were planning to implement ELL and Bellingham-Victoria services. I see no reason why we should not support the campaign for Bellingham-Victoria services, and I hope they will support our campaign for 6tph in the evening peak (and through the day), as well as our late evening services to Victoria.

After 2015, when the Thameslink work is completed we will also benefit from direct services to Kings Cross from Forest Hill!
